Here is the Shorebird Egg collection of Vase Mats. They started out as Robert Kaufman Pimatex white cotton fabric and then I applied a flour paste resist to create the crackle texture with textile paint. The paste was rinsed out; then they were dyed with Procion MX dyes and finally block printed with hand-carved circles. Each is machine quilted and hand beaded. The final quilt sandwich includes a layer of water-resistant fabric to protect a table surface.
